This quarter, analysts are expecting Darden’s revenue to grow 5.2% year on year to $2.87 billion, slowing from the 9.7% increase it recorded in the same quarter last year. Adjusted earnings are expected to come in at $2.02 per share.

Darden Total Revenue

Analysts covering the company have generally reconfirmed their estimates over the last 30 days, suggesting they anticipate the business to stay the course heading into earnings. Darden has missed Wall Street’s revenue estimates four times over the last two years.

With Darden being the first among its peers to report earnings this season, we don’t have anywhere else to look to get a hint at how this quarter will unravel for restaurants stocks. However, investors in the segment have had steady hands going into earnings, with share prices flat over the last month. Darden is up 2.9% during the same time and is heading into earnings with an average analyst price target of $181.62 (compared to the current share price of $165.46).

When a company has more cash than it knows what to do with, buying back its own shares can make a lot of sense–as long as the price is right. Luckily, we’ve found one, a low-priced stock that is gushing free cash flow AND buying back shares.
